Yes please feel free to add me also

I'm gonna go through and send invites to people that want friends but please feel free to send me request also! ^_^

You can always start!! :)

Your welcome!! I am going to wait to take my 3 week photo before I share. I'm hoping to see some good progress

I'm in the same place! 30lbs to lose and 5lbs down already :) anyone feel free to add me

Those are great Tjcarver! Lookin good :)

I have been doing the same. I was hoping some would share theirs as motivation! Haha but I guess for some that might be uncomfortable. I'll be taking my 3 week progress photo on Tuesday

I'm wondering if this might be what's going on! I just moved up quite a lot in the intensity of my work outs. So hopefully it has something to do with that. I think I'll check back in a couple weeks to see what's happening. I might go crazy if I weigh myself every day haha

Ok thank you all so much! How often do you suggest weighing myself and would it be better to take measurements instead?

Definitely fast food!

Yes I do! Then I do my work out about 4-5pm and I feel hungry when I go to sleep. I can't seen to find the right amount of calories to add to my diet. I keep increasing it but I still feel hungry all the time pretty much.

Yes!

Sure id love to! I just had my second baby on October 25th and I'm looking to make more friends with the same goal. Feel free to add me anyone :)

Forrest Gump! Best childhood memory?

It definitely does! I like to look at fitness pages an magazines for extra inspirtion also

I did 25 minutes Denise Austin boot camp cardio and strength training. It was my first time with this particular routine and I almost didn't make it through it but I held on and kept pushin forward.

Haha sorry if this was a repeat post. This is my fourth day with MFP I do appreciate all the advice however. :)

I must not be taking in enough calories because it is alway right after my work out that I become hungry. I'm not really sure how many calories my work out burns but it's pretty intense with a lot of plyometrics and high impact aerobics. Yesterday about 40 min worth. When my first started my diet I was only taking in 1440…

No way! Haha :)

My TDEE is about 2640 calories. So my calorie goal right now is 1640 a day. I took in around 1930 calories and burned 300 in exercise.

I looked but didn't see it so I hope this isn't a repeat but I found that low fat 1% milk small curd cottage cheese is a great source of protein. Serving size is 1/2 cup 80 calories 12g protein

This discussion has been more helpful then you all know! After reading what everyone wrote I realized that due to my activity level, I work out 7 days a week alternating between cardio and strength training, that I was not taking in enough calories and that my sugar is fine! I literally felt like I was STARVING by the end…

[/quote] I think I heard somewhere that 100g is a good starting point. I googled this, and it seems to be like a reliable source: How Much Protein Per Day? Are you using the MyFitnessPal (MFP) method of calculating how many calories you intake, or Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE)? Also for whoever asked, CICO is an…

How did you get 82%?

Ok awesome! Thanks so much for the help guys. I've kinda just been "going with it" an making my own routine instead of following any pre packaged one. Just coming up with my own routine so I'm figuring things out on my own. Last question, I promise, since I'm going to start trying to add muscle what should my protein…

I will add that while my current goal is weight loss I will eventually be looking to tone and add a bit of muscle. I'm assuming adding muscle comes later! Haha

Thank you all for the information. I will admit I was one of those people that thought weight loss would be halted if you had a high sugar intake. You hear so much about how sugars are bad it can be misleading. I'm trying to meet all my nutrient needs while staying low in calories. Would anyone mind looking at my nutrient…

Ok good! That makes things easier. I have 300 calories left today and I've been wondering how I was going to make up for that.

Ok thank you! Do you have any suggestions though on what the sugar intake should actually be like?

I'm with everyone that said give up pop and drink water! For me this was the most important thing
